S13 Steering Knuckles

i beleive my next mod i will do to my car is modify my steering knuckles... Has anyone modified thier s13 for more steering angle? By looking at mine... it looks like i can just take a section out and reweld it. I was planning on taking out the biggest section i can. will that be too much? or is closest the better?

i had thought about it but then was so happy because i saved myself a big pain in my *Censored**Censored**Censored* (trying to get the lengths exactly the same) by getting some aftermarket tierods that have 11mm worth of spacers in them now i feal like i can flip a *Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored**Censored* in a parkingspace

sory "complete a u turn" my post was edited
the stock tie rods only adjust the toe. the aftermarket tie rods have shims thet enable the iner tie rod to go further into the rack making a tighter turning radius most of the aftermarkit tr have 6mm shims i would not suggest trying to put shims on stock tie rods because of the amount of threds that would be left useable
again my $0.02
